Me too. My father's in Spain at the moment. Fortunately, he's okay. Now I wish I had someone or something to thank.

Atheists can pray too. We don't have to believe that someone will hear our prayers to pray. After all, we may be wrong. There is a slim chance that God exists and hears our prayers. When I feel compelled to pray, I just do, cuz maybe somebody does hear. Even if nobody hears, it just makes me feel better to express my love and gratitude.

I remember seeing a white helicopter with a red cross on it heading for Children's Memorial Hospital. My prayer consisted pretty much of just "Hey You, this warrants Your attention."
